Searching for files
The Go To > Resource action in the Navigate menu allows you to quickly find a resource in the Workbench by searching resource names.
You can also do more complex searches for files in the Workbench. For example, to find all files that end with .xml:
- On the main toolbar, click the Search button
.
- Type .xml into the File name patterns field and leave the Containing text field empty.
(You can use the pull-down list to select .xml if it had been previously entered.)- Finish entering your search options, for example to scope the search to specified working sets, and click Search.
- The Search view displays the results of your search. Right-click on any item in the Search view to open a pop-up menu that allows you to remove items from the list, copy search results to the clipboard, or rerun the search. To open one of the listed files, double-click it or select Go to File from its pop-up menu.
If you close the Search view, you can return to it later by selecting Window > Show View > Other > Basic > Search.
